Disgruntled Waitress

ICQ #: 3363330


Cassandra was born into a middle-class family in Meribia. Her parents were jewelers and rather well off. After Cassandra moved out of her house at the age of fifteen, she decided to become a waitress in a tavern in low-class end of Meribia. Occasionally, a wealthy or influential individual would go in there to make "business propositions" with the regular patrons of smugglers, thieves, and assassins. Although she never enjoyed being a waitress, she stuck with it because she figured the pay was all right. She always received generous tips from her customers, even if her employer did take 10% off the top.

Cassandra has been able to meet many different people, ranging from the dirtiest scum on the face of Lunar to the biggest, seemingly legitimate crime lords. At one time, a major crime lord from Reza Underground, told Cassandra that she should get away from waitressing and marry him. Thinking he was just joking around like so many other customers, she ignored him. Others have told her dark secrets; secrets that no one except herself and the people who told her know. One of these secrets is about a secret treasure buried in the Frontier, a treasure that would take the lowest of men and give him the grandest power of kings. Of course, she didn't believe him either, being the drunken assassin-for-hire he was.

Over the years, Cassandra has been able to learn how to use a few rare skills, like thieving, using a whip, and a small array of magical powers that she has barely even begun to exploit. With her new companions, perhaps she will begin to use those talents so long honed.


Finally meeting up with somebody from her past brought more than one suprise with him. Lyle, the thief who wanted her to marry him, introduced her to a man by the name of Lamont. Lyle's polar opposite and quite frankly everything he was not quickly became the object of Cassandra's attraction. Of course, things being as they are leaves very little time for romance (and considering how shy Lamont is, they're going to need a lot of time).


Being among the woman seduced by Lord Vargomere in Baroton, she was forced to fight the party. Somewhere deep in her mind, she admitted to caring for Lamont, although in an odd fashion; from under the vampire's thrall, she asked him to bring Lamont into his circle. Failing to down the whole party with her spell, she was discarded by Vargomere, only to rise up after his death and attack Finn.

As a former slave of the vampire, Lamont may not be able to look at her in quite the same way...
